A Free Trade Banauet.

A few days since there was noted free
trade banquet in Boston, where distin-
guished free traders dined upon all the deli
cacies that money could procure to tickle
their palates, and washed down the entire
NETS with imported wines of the best
quality.
Number "A of the reports of the consuls
of the United States, dated February, 1887
gives the items Of another banquet to which
these free traders invite the workingmen and
women Of the country. 1t is not such ono
as that at Boston, prepared by a distin-
guished restauranteur, and the workingmen
of the country can compare the two and see
the kind OF table at which these free traders
invite them and their families to be seated
No one can denounce the menu pre-
sented as o Republican fraud, because
the reports are from officials of this govern
ment, and taken from the official reports Of
officers of the government where they are
stationed, and the home figures are from
the official reports, in the census Of 1880, of
Gen. Francis A. Walker, himself free
trader.
Workingmen all over the United States
are specially invited to consider carefully
the figures presented. Free trade means
European wages and European fare for
them, and "a tariff for revenue only' is
the equivalent Of free trade.
Consul Robertson, Of Veviers and Liege,
on Jan. %, 1887, reports that the wages
paid in Belgium to the workmen who man
ufecture white lead are about as follows:
To the men who build up and tear down the
beds, GO cents for day Of ten hours to the
"scrapers," so cents; to the 'packers," 70
cents, and to the "pulverizes," 55 cents;
that is $3.50, $500, $4,20, and $3.50 for a
weeks wages.
Vice Consul Wiser, of Rotterdam, Dec.
IS, 1856, reports that the average weekly
pay In the Netherlands" for the white
lead workers is $3.50, and this is considered
very high wages, and is given because o.
the danger to the health Of the operatives.
Mr.. John B. Hawes, commercial agent at
Reichenberg, Bohemia, Nov. 20, 1886, says
there are six thousand men, two thousand
women, and two thousand boys employed
manufacture OF cloth at Reichenburg.
The working hours are from a. m. to p.

average weekly wages paid are; Weavers,
